Iwata and Nintendo are both still searching for Blue Markets, while ignoring the Red Market now for 10+ years
Fact is the Blue Market they created moved on from Wii / DS to the iOS / Android devices
The Red Market that still continues to have the most spend in gaming, are being well served by Sony and MS. Nintendo shouldn't expect the "core" to treat the Wii U as anything other than a potential 2nd/3rd console when that "core" is well aware that Nintendo will be missing all the key 3rd party games of the year.
Bottom line, the "core" is much more interested in being able to play GTA V, Tomb Raider, Bioshock, etc over a meager few quality titles from Nintendo (Super Mario 3D World, etc).
